Teremar asked about suspensions- there is a note that there are 7 unique students - which means 7 different students that were suspended throughout the year. 3 are reportable to DESE. A student was pulling an average 6 to 7 staff to try to a manager her every day. Student is at a 45-day evaluation to analyze what she needs.  Board expressed gratefulness of in-school suspensions and not outside so there is no disruption in learning with students. 

Can't expand grades yet.

Kendra reported that she went to a meeting for updates as it relates to budget and what the new administrations orders mean to budgeting. It was all for the foreseeable future. 

Applications for lottery: almost 200

Health room visits have increased due to all the illnesses going around and it's affecting attendance. 

Met on that day - not much different from Kendra's report. 6-week progress monitoring on students have started - its showing that it's working. They are in the third rotation and kids are moving academically.  Small groups that are supporting students that are not performing well.

Darren has joined the committee - overall finances look good. Our ongoing projects are that we are looking into diversifying the accounts. Kendra has been reaching out to banks. We learned that the federal governments looking to cut grants - all the money from this year has already gone to the state so this will not affect us. However- next year it might.

Gala is coming up. Last meeting we had 2 guests who are very excited to join the meeting - would like to put them up for a vote.
